Bteam
Josiah Venture created a care team known as the Bteam, or Barnabas team. The Bteam exists to provide care, support and resources for the entire JV team. This team has been developed to anticipate and respond to the second and third culture missionary needs, assist the national organizations & develop systems and resources in order for the JV team to accomplish what God has called JV to do; equipping young leaders in Eastern Europe to fulfill Christ's commission through the local church.
